ON THE BEACH

Clouds scudded across the sky

Fluffy edges tinged white and grey

As the shadows started to fall

The recycling bins stood tall

But a lone grey litter bin

Stood slightly apart from his kin

Perhaps a first generation import

Others evolved into different sorts

Choose the one that suits you best

Place inside cardboard, hard and compressed

Make sure it’s battened and flattened

No litter to be deposited on our sandy beach

Fingers of sunshine just out of reach

Shine on the lime green outer coating

Of staid, silent sentinels standing

Precise and still, attention grabbing,

Hungry mouths open, waiting.
